Month: November 2016

Join us for a casual gathering. Bring your spinning wheels, knitting, crocheting, needle felting, mini looms or any portable project. This is a wonderful opportunity to hone your spinning skills-or to learn, if you've been itching to discover the excitement of making your own custom yarns. Free spindle kits provided! It's also a relaxing and fun way to introduce a friend into this simple yet satisfying skill.

Because of so much interest, the Western Reserve Spinners and Weavers Guild has decided to start a Rigid Heddle SIG (Special Interest Group). While there is no one to teach us new skills, and update the old ones, this SIG will be members helping and challenging each other as we explore the possibilities of the looms.

You must be a member of the WRSW Guild to join this group. If you are not a member and would like to join WRSW, the membership fee is only $15 if paid prior to December 31st; after that it is $20. For more information go to http://wrspinweave.org/about/.

Once you are a member of WRSW, membership in the Rigid Heddle SIG is FREE! It will be led by Linda Christopher and JoEllen Salkin. We are planning an initial meeting on January 15th, 2-4 at the Solon Branch of the Cuyahoga County Public Library.

Please let us know if you are interested (unless you have already done so) by calling Linda at 440.781.2046 or sending an email to linda102@twc.com. Details will be sent to those who sign-up.
